Society of Illumination
Ruling body of the Chovantine Hegemony. Originally known as the Society for Improving Natural Knowledge, they were a body dedicated to improving and increasing knowledge during the time of the Rhalindic Republic, they slowly took power and reformed the Republic into the Chovantine Hegemony and are now much more political in nature than scholarly.
They are headed by a Council of Luminarchs of 21, which is itself headed by a "Speaker". The society has over a thousand members (known as Illuminates), and it is from these that prospective Luminarchs are chosen.
